no channel change with firedtv-c and alphacrypt cam

[nickmwd]

Not sure if it's a bug or just a stupidity at my end......

I am not able to change channels with firedtv-c with latest firedtv drivers(all channels are encrypted, and using official cam and smartcard - all's ok with mytheatre).

The channel scan by DD went smooth and all channels were found. I compared DD's channel properties with MyTheatre's channel properties and could not find any differences.

The only way to get video is the following (e.g. watching eurosport):
1. open DD and select eurosport
2. close DD
3. open MyTheatre and select eurosport
4. close MyTheatre
5 open DD
Since DD selects the last active channel it tunes to eurosport, and now I get video

Changing to another channels gives no video, the log file shows a growing TS. Changing back to eurosport results in video again.
This also happens when the channels are on the same transponder.

I checked "channel lock" and "viewable", that's not it.
Furthermore after tuning to a channel there is a yellow padlock in the lower grey area of the screen. Can't find the meaning (encryption??).

Am I missing something? Any clue?

Sorry for the delay, here they are.

This is what I did:
- Tune to BBC1 using DD and close DD
- Tune to BBC1 using MT and close MT
- open DD, toned to BBC1 ok
- change channel to BBC2, result: black screen
- change back to BBC 1, result: all's ok
- close DD

have you tried changing CI PMT option ?
Main menu->Tools->CI/CAM Console->Max PMT count
try 1 , then it 0 if it doesn't work. you need to restart DD after changing these options.
please let me know about the results.

Tried that, no difference. Still no channel change.
The buttons below the bar are greyed out, does this mean the CAM isn't recognized?
